4500 N. Winchester, Chicago IL 60640

This 12 story building was constructed in 1968 as housing for
nurses and doctors when the Ravenswood Hospital was growing and
expected to be a major medical force on Chicago's Northwest Side.
Things didn't turn out as planned as the hospital closed in the mid
1990's and the building was converted to apartments.

The building features forty four 4 1/2 room two-bedroom
apartments and forty four 3 1/2 room one-bedroom apartments. The
units have heat included, but electric and central air conditioning
are paid for by the tenant. Rents begin at $1,375 for the two
bedrooms and about $1,035 for the one bedrooms. Laundry facilities
and bike storage are on the ground floor.

As an added bonus, Lycee Francais de Chicago, known as the
French School, built a new campus nearby to replace the
original aging hospital Wilson Avenue. It also transformed an old
parking lot into open green space and a soccer field for the
students.
